The second pedigree involves albinism, an autosomal recessive trait. A couple has a son with normal pigmentation, a daughter with normal pigmentation, and an albino son. Another couple has three children, a son with normal pigmentation and two daughters with normal pigmentation. The daughter from the first couple marries the man from the second couple and they have three children together: an albino son, an albino daughter, and a daughter with normal pigmentation.

Does the phenotype indicated by the red circles and squares in this pedigree show an inheritance pattern that is autosomal dominant, autosomal recessive, or X-linked?
Albinism in humans is autosomal and fully recessive to normal color. A couple, who are both normal, have a daughter who is albino and a son who is normal. What is the probability that their normal son is a carrier of the albinism gene?
Cystic fibrosis is an autosomal recessive disorder that runs in Ann's family. Consider the figure of a pedigree of the known occurrences of cystic fibrosis in her family. Ann Filled (red) circles represent affected females. Filled (red) squares represent affected males. Unfilled (tan) circles, such as Ann's circle, represent symptomless females. Unfilled (tan) squares represent symptomless males.
John and Sue are expecting a child, but are concerned about a rare autosomal recessive disease that is present in both of their families. In the pedigree, John is represented as individual III-11 and Sue is represented as individual III-12; both are unaffected. John's sister, III-10, and Sue's brother, III-13, both do not show evidence of the disease, but John's paternal grandmother and Sue's maternal grandfather both had the disease. Assign the appropriate symbol to each individual in the pedigree. I 3 4. Answer Bank II III 11 12 13 10 2.
People with polydactyly have more than five fingers or toes on their hands or feet. Polydactyly results from an autosomal dominant genetic disorder. Draw a pedigree for a family with polydactyly, using the following information: Zack has polydactyly but his wife, Zoe does not. Zack and Zoe’s daughter Yolanda has polydactyly but their son Yogi does not. Yolanda has two children with her husband, Xavier, who does not have polydactyly: Wilma, who is normal and Wade, who has polydactyly. Use your pedigree to determine what is Zoe's genotype. A) DD B)dd C)Dd
Albinism in humans is autosomal and fully recessive to normal color. A couple, who are both normal, have a daughter who is albino and a son who is normal. The couple wants to have 3 more children. What is the probability that they will have 3 normal girls?
Is this pedigree dominant or recessive. Which best defines this pedigree Autosomal or sex-linked?
The pedigree below shows a family with a history of an autosomal recessive genetic disease with one individual's genotype indicated (G denotes the normal allele and g denotes the disease-causing allele). * O 0 O 1/8 1/4 O 1/16 Individual 1's father is known to be heterozygous (*) and his mother is known to be homozygous dominant. Other individuals in the pedigree may be carriers, but are not marked. The question mark (?) indicates that you do not yet know anything about this individual's phenotype with regard to the disease. Part 1 What is the probability that individuals 1 and 2 will have a child (5) who is a male with the disease (the child is unborn and the sex is not yet known)? O 1/4 1 O 1/6 5 1/8 2 01/12 gg 3 Part 2 What is the probability that the daughter (female)(6) that individual 3 and 4 just had will have the disease? 6
A couple seeks advice from a genetic counselor because they know that they are both carriers for cystic fibrosis (which is autosomal recessive), and the woman is a carrier for Duchenne muscular dystrophy (which is sex-linked recessive). For each of their future sons and daughters (calculate separately), what is the probability that they will be affected for: Cystic fibrosis Duchenne muscular dystrophy
John and Sue are expecting a child, but are concerned about a rare autosomal recessive disease that is present in both of their families. In the pedigree, John is represented as individual III‑11 and Sue is represented as individual III‑12; both are unaffected. John's sister, III‑10, and Sue's brother, III‑13, both do not show evidence of the disease, but John's paternal grandmother and Sue's maternal grandfather both had the disease. What is the probability that neither John nor Sue is a carrier?
A man who is an achondroplastic dwarf with normal vision marries a color- blind woman of normal height. The man's father was 6 feet tall, and both the woman's parents were of average height. Achondroplastic dwarfism is autosomal dominant, and red-green color blindness is X-linked recessive. They have a daughter who is a dwarf with normal vision. What is the probability that she is heterozygous for both genes? а. 0% b. 25% c. 50% d. 75% е. 100%
